Useless ID is a four-piece punk rock band, formed in Haifa, Israel in 1994. Known as one of the most successful Israeli punk bands worldwide.
The 12 tracks on Symptoms ooze with all the irresistible appeal of songs popularized by genre heavyweights Rise Against, No Use For a Name, and Alkaline Trio, yet clearly maintain a cohesive and unique perspective from start to finish. Individually each song is a hit, and collectively Symptoms is Useless ID’s piece de resistance.

Note: 192kbps, as soon as a better quality rip leaks, I will post it.

This Is a Standoff was a Canadian melodic hardcore/punk rock band. After the demise of their former band Belvedere, songwriter/guitarist Steve Rawles and drummer Graham Churchill were set on starting a new project and getting back on the road. After joining forces with Forty Cent Fix’s John Meloche, they gathered in Calgary, Alberta to write songs for their first album. The line-up was soon rounded out by Corey Tapp, bassist of One Shot Left.
On February 7th, 2012, it was announced via their facebook page that the band had decided to quit. Originally intended to be a "side project", the group found themselves performing 322 shows in over 25 countries.

[NEWS] 'This Is A Standoff' is dead!

2012-02-07T18:40:00.004+01:00

Sad news. The canadian skate punk band This Is A Standoff is dead. This is what they said on their facebook page:

As you may have noticed, things have been quiet with us since the fall, and apologies are due, as we have been holding onto this bit of news for a few months now.

To make it short and sweet, This Is A Standoff is done. Touring has become harder and harder, and everyone's lives have been heading in different directions for quite some time now.

We set out to be a part-time band, but somehow we ended up playing 322 shows in over 25 countries across 4 continents. Along the way, we were lucky enough make amazing friends in all corners of the world and play along side some of our favourite bands.

It's been an amazing and surreal five years, and we owe endless thank you's to every single one of you that helped us out along the way by checking out a record, attending or promoting a show, letting us crash on your floor, giving us food, or simply taking five minutes to come chat with us.

It's been swell, friends... Thanks for everything.

Short Songs is the sixth studio album by the Canadian post-hardcore band Silverstein. Unlike the band's previous fifth studio albums, the album has an untraditional number of 22 songs, though as the album title suggests, all songs are short and under 90 seconds. Only 11 of the songs are original songs, while the other 11 are covers of songs by notable punk and hardcore bands that influenced Silverstein, such as Green Day, Dead Kennedys, Gorilla Biscuits and NOFX. It is the band's second release on Hopeless Records and like their last album, was also produced by Jordan Valeriote.

Rufio was formed when bassist Jon Berry was a freshman in college and the other three members, Scott Sellers, Mike Jimenez, and Clark Domae were in their senior year of high school. Sellers and Domae had been acquainted for some time and found a shared talent in the guitar. Sellers met Berry and they began playing together in various groups and sessions. Around the same time, the two purchased a 4-track to record the songs they were writing. After Berry and Sellers began recording, they asked Jimenez to listen to their recordings and play drums with them. Domae joined shortly after and completed the official lineup. The band took their name from the character Rufio, leader of the Lost Boys in the absence of Peter Pan in the 1991 film Hook.

[NEWS] New 'Contrabandit' song

2012-01-30T12:49:00.007+01:00

Contrabandit is a Canadian band that existed between 2005 and 2010. After breaking up, they had some shitty feelings about not recording their final work as a band. When they managed to bring one of the musicians home from the great north, and subsequently Europe, they decided to record one last EP 'Greatest Hits, vol. 3'

This project was the culmination of 2 years of song writing and working the songs in front of audiences in Canada. They wrote, and re-wrote until they had exactly what we wanted. And now, they're super proud to give you the first song on their new album. Unglued was selected not because it's the best song on the album, or the catchiest, or the most technical, nor the fastest, nor the heaviest...but it's what they consider middle ground. It's the hub that each other song spokes out from. They get heavier (Check Out the Checkout), they get more technical (It's Complicated), they get catchier (Wait On), they get faster (Isolation Pay), and they get better (The Debts).
